Fake trailer: Naina (1973) - full-length

Because once is never enough for laddoos, pizza, you-know-what, and fake trailers. Consider our last trailer merely a teaser, something to warm you up for the batshit intensity of Gogol Bordello-fied drama. Because what's better than a good thing? Two good things mashed together!

Fantastic! Great slant towards the reeling drunkennes and crashing memories - so well-suited to the music! (Actually, which was first: wanting to use the music, or having the idea to focus on this type of scene and being reminded of the song?)

Beth - Thanks! Sigh, I love Gogol Bordello so much. They need more airtime... everywhere. The song came first; I listened to it on a Muxtape and thought immediately, "This would be perfect for some shots of a wasted Shashi running into walls. Ah yes, Naina!"

Long Haired Spider - WHY, INDEED!

Memsaab - Thanks! Sigh, I wish it was my career. That would be freaking cool.

Rum - Dhanyavad!

Shweta - Thanks. I have many a fantasy where someone (smoking a fat cigar, no doubt) from Eros Entertainment phones me up and goes, "Kid, we like what you got! We're sendin' ya a ticket to Mumbai, stat!" I guess he wouldn't have a New Yawker accent, but you know what I mean.

Spygirl - LOL, it also freaks me out. But worry not; just dead flowers, symbolic of their unconsummated wedding night (which she's kept in that same night's bedsheets). Juxtaposing nicely against Shashi's real flowers, which she is now choosing to ignore.
